The focus of this fun and effective activity is to challenge teams to perform across various important forms of team work. All while having a super fun experience together. Focus areas include: planning, execution and healthy competition.
As with professional racing, our Go-Kart Construction Challenge is about crew and driver. Your group will be split up into smaller racing teams. Their goal is to build a custom concept car and then race for glory.
Only by forming sub-teams and working in parallel will successful race-winning karts be created by each team. The allotted time winds down quickly so efficiency is important.
With a good understanding of the end goal, this complex project can be broken down in order to keep the whole team productive and efficient. The key: everyone’s efforts are essential to build winning kart.
The first order of business will be to elect a Pit Boss. The Pit Boss will provide overall supervision for this team challenge. Once the team has decided on a theme for their car, the Pit Boss will assign each team member a role. Each team member must work together in their various roles if they are to stand atop the winner’s podium.
Each team develops a blueprint design that must be approved by event staff for safety. The concept car must have a chassis and body. Team members must build their race car according to their blueprints. While the car is under construction, other team members will decorate a set of drivers coveralls with the team’s unique brand.
The completed cars are approximately 18” x 48” and hold a driver. Their lucky driver will wear the race-suit for the big race: a race that will be team-powered!
To fire up the team spirit and prepare their driver for competition, team members must create and perform their very own “Go-Kart War Cry”. All concept cars must pass a safety inspection before they will be allowed to race. Once inspection is passed, drivers will suit up and prepare for competition.
Teams will race against each other in a unique knock-out drag racing format to see who will make it to the final Winner’s Circle. Medals are presented for Best Pit Crew, 1st Place Finish and Best Overall Team.
Aspects of the program may be modified depending on venue restrictions, program length, and group size.
There is plenty of creativity with ‘pimping’ of the cars a highlight and practice makes perfect as the final race is won or lost by teams who are able to focus on the bigger picture while also attending to the finer details.
